Screening of flocculant-producing strains by NTG mutagenesis

Screening of new microorganism being able to produce efficiently flocculants was carried out. A new model for screening efficient flocculant-producing strains was designed and tested. The results showed that this model for screening efficient flocculant-producing strains is very reliable and can greatly shorten the screening period. 13 flocculant-producing strains were isolated from activated sludge by conventional method. A strain, designated as HHE6, produced the bioflocculant with the turbidity removal 98% for kaolin suspension. Six of 13 strains selected as the original strains were treated with NTG as mutagen, and five mutant strains(HHE-P7, HHE-A8, HHE-P21,HHE-P24, HHE-A26) with high flocculation efficiency was obtained by selection, which exhibited the flocculation rate for kaolin suspension above 90%. Strains HHE6, HHE-P7, and HHE-P24 were classified as Penicillium purpurogenum, HHE-P21 as Penicillium cyclopium,HHE-A26 as Aspergillus versicolor and HHE-A8 as Aspergillus fumigatus, and it is hitherto unreported for biofloccutant-producing strains of Penicillium. The growth of the six strains(HHE6, HHE-P7, HHE-A8, HHE-P21, HHE-P24, HHE-A26) had similar curves, i.e. firstly increasing rapidly, keeping relatively constant then and finally decreasing gradually with cultivation time. The production of bioflocculants by strains showed the similar pattern to strain growth.     

我国南疆荒漠喀什-和田地区的畜牧业特点与发展战略

作者在对该地区进行实地考察的基础上,研究了位于新疆南部荒漠最西部两个地区的自然环境和经济条件后,指出该地区畜牧业的 4个基本特点,概括了该地区畜牧业与生态环境以及牧业生产条件之间的关系。地处内陆,极端干旱,周围高山环绕,绿洲经济与绿洲农业发达,对该地区畜牧业的现状与发展有深刻影响。从而作者提出了该地区发展畜牧业的方向与战略。指出今后应以发展集约化的平原绿洲畜牧业为主体。改革饲养方式,加强饲料生产,提高畜群生产水平,近期商品性生产的发展要与自给性生产的发展相结合。使我国这一特殊类型地区的畜牧业得以顺利发展。     

六六六在饲养鸡体内的残留水平

用气相色谱-电子捕获器法测定了北京郊区某养鸡场不同生长期的饲养鸡的肌肉、表皮、肝脏、胃、心脏以及鸡蛋、饲料和粪便中HCH的残留浓度.分析结果表明,饲养鸡体内肌肉、表皮、肝脏、胃和心脏的∑HCH湿重浓度分别为(0.35±0.37)、(3.91±2.52)、(1.78±1.26)、(1.00±0.85)和(1.35±0.75)ng/g,脂标化浓度分别为(64.3±171)、(19.6±7.33)、(64.9±27.2)、(74.5±74.1)和(17.8±4.42)ng/g,远低于国家<食品中农药残留最大限量>标准.肝脏∑HCH脂标化浓度显著高于其他器官,而未观察到HCH各异构体残留水平在肌肉、表皮、心脏与胃之间具有显著差别.除饲料、胃和粪便内各HCH异构体成分中以δ-HCH为主外,β-HCH是鸡体内与鸡蛋中残留最高的异构体.β-HCH在鸡体内各器官都体现出富集的特性,肝脏对除δ-HCH以外的3种异构体也都体现出显著的富集特性.对成年绿柴鸡(雄)和绿壳蛋鸡(雌)样品中HCHs残留水平的对比分析显示,雄性较雌性具有更强的HCHs富集能力.

饲养宠物要防病

现在，越来越多的人开始饲养各式各样的宠物，有的还拿它们当自己孩子一样看待。但在与宠物亲近的时候，一些疾病也可能传染给人类。以下向读者介绍了几种比较常见的宠物病，这些疾病能在动物和人之间交叉传染，危害较大。弓形体病弓形体病是由弓浆虫引起的寄生虫病，这种病能在包括人、猫、狗、猪、羊在内的２０多种动物之间互相传染。弓浆虫在猫体内以有性繁殖的方式生存，而在其他动物的体内则以无性繁殖的方式生存。急性感染时有呼吸困难、咳嗽、高烧等症状，还会造成体表淋巴肿大、腹部皮肤及耳部淤血斑。当虫体侵入到动物眼睛和大脑时…
